This is the correct behavior: gedit shouldn't copy the selected text in
the clipboard because (if you don't use some special applications such
as glipper) this will overwrite the previous copied data. This can be
very unconfortable for most of the users. For example, if you copy an
image from GIMP, delete it, and select some text in gedit (not perforce
for mistake) you will lose the image.
For this reason I mark this bug Won't Fix, but please feel free to
reopen the bug or ask questions about, I'd happy to try to solve your
problem.
